I’ve played third reich. There is both an 80s version, and a 90s version of that game. They are quite different. However, it is alot simpler and smaller than WiF. I am currently playing a game called Scorched Earth, Urals Mod in the Europa System. This game has baseunits being divisions and regiments. It playes the entire war on the eastern front. Each space is a hexagon at about 25 km accross. you usualle have about 3000 pieces on the map at any given time, when only playing the eastern front. If you play once a week, you will actually use like 8 years to play the 4 years from 41 to the end of 45.

Good morning! After about 7 years since I last played Global (Alpha 2?), I’m hoping to get a game starting with a friend. I’ve dusted off my old set, and computer folder of resources and aids, but it appears there have been a lot of developments, and I’m having trouble getting up to speed. I’ve return to the Boards here to ask for help. Below are some of questions:
1. Does “G40.2” refer to the Global rules in the Pacific Second Ed. rulebook?
2. What is the current/latest version of Global 1940 rules and setup?
3. Is there a new version or revision planned?
4. What resources should I download before playing; are there definitive FAQs or modified rules?
5. Is there anything else I should know, or be asking?Thanks, Eph
